Spotify App Updated With Support for iPhone X Displays

Just updated and it's still letterboxed. I hope they fix the problems with CarPlay and Spotify :-(

Same here, updated the app, restarted it and still letterboxed

There are disincentives in play, nothing to be gained by making their competitor’s phone look great.

Like the battery draining bug in their YouTube app; they did acknowledge it at least, but how long before they fix it?

People won't do away with Gmail quickly (even though they could just use the Mail app instead of the Gmail app), but I was even tempted putting Apple Maps on my home screen instead of Google Maps the last couple of days, just to try. I can only assume that Google wants users to keep using their services instead of their competitors.

At least maybe for Google Maps, the reason they haven't updated is that maybe they're readying their overall Google Maps update?

Update to 11.1.2 and then it might show up. Did for me.

I am on 11.2 public beta, still letterboxed for me also.

At this point, they should have just made it compatible with 11.2

That's some top notch UI design.

Use Apple Music. It's better and designed to work seamlessly across all your iOS devices.

Spotify is bloated junkware at this point. They still don't have a way for your manage the cache so it'll keep chewing up your storage until you uninstall the app. Which then means reinstall and manually put all your settings back each time. Haha, they are clueless.

Apple Music's design is on par with iTunes, which is to say a usability nightmare. Thank G-d for Spotify.
